Ever-Ready Frameback aka Shovel Head "Square comb"
Gem PTFE  (6)
Arko Shave Stick
Omega Boar Bristle
Vintage Shulton Formula Old Spice (Indian pre P&G take over)

A 10/10 supremely efficient shave with the Square comb razor. The blade on its 6th shave and the razor was in the goldilocks zone of smoothness and efficiency.

Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap
Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
Bunny V3 Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Osage Rub

The TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap lathered well with Tom's B400 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Shave of the Week Starting 7 August 2023

Gem razor w/custom handle
Gem Super Stainless blade
Zenith B10 boar brush
Yaqi Artic synthetic brush
Nivea Shave Stick
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Various A/S

Going to be an interesting shave week. Starting to use the Zenith boar that I think is broken in enough to use. Been doing the 3 day frig procedure along with a lot of hand lathers. Worked pretty well today though so don't know that I'll need the Yaqi which I chose as a back up in case the Zenith didn't perform well. The Gem, with the custom handle, worked well, mild and comfortable. I think the change of handle has made the Gem even more mild than it all ready was. And an admission, I turned the Nivea Shave Stick into a puck by grating into a sealable container. I like it better that way. BTW, the custom handle was made for me by Geg aka Gaw9576. But the results today? Pretty good and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

I never heard of an ER 1924 called "Frameback" before.  Huh
